Jeremiah 20:9-11

Names of God Bible

⁹ I think to myself, “I can forget Yahweh
    and no longer speak his name.”
    But his word is inside me like a burning fire shut up in my bones.
    I wear myself out holding it in, but I can’t do it any longer.
¹⁰ I have heard many people whispering,
    “Terror is everywhere!
        Report him! Let’s report him!”
    All my closest friends are waiting to see me stumble.
    They say, “Maybe he will be tricked.
        Then we can overpower him and take revenge on him.”
¹¹ But Yahweh is on my side like a terrifying warrior.
    That is why those who persecute me will stumble. They can’t win.
        They will be very ashamed that they can’t succeed.
            Their eternal shame will not be forgotten.
